Call to Report Manager through Internet

Hi All,

Is it possible to call report manager through ASP.NET application?

We are using Microsoft Active Directory to validate users.

If the user type is admin then we would like to call the report manager so that the admin can create roles etc.

Does anyone knows how to do this?

Report Manager uses the report server SOAP API to perform management tasks. You can use this same API for your own applications. See http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms152787(SQL.90).aspx|||

Thanks for the info. It looks like we can develop our own custom Report Manager using APIs. But we don't have time to do this.

So, is it possible to call report manager from web application? Something like..

http:/ReportSever/Reports and the admin can see just his folder(s).

|||Anyone know about this?|||

You can access Report Manager Folder the same way that you access other Virtual Directories. Go to your IIS Admin and look for Reports Virtual Directory and set up the security that you need. the URL should be somethig like:

http://YourServerOrIPAddress/Reports

|||Thanks much!!
